22500 mile service needed 2017 DL1000 SW London
« on: August 19, 2020, 15:26:46 »
Hi all, my 2017 DL1000 needs its 22.5k service. I called up a main dealer in Chels*a and to be honest, the bloke did not seem to have much idea about what the service involved ("valves" (false, from my Suzuki manual), "tank off", "a big job") about £300-400 all-in. Didn't inspire confidence. Can anyone recommend an independent or dealer somewhere between SW London to Canary Wharf or thereabouts? How much should the service cost? Many Thanks.

Kwackboy is a bike mechanic, just to clarify.

Why not DIY?

Not sure about these rumours...  :stirpot:

@ sjb,
 
If you are not confident in a DIY job feel free to check out Burwin Motorcycles on Google. If you like what you see give us a call, ask for Brian.

Allegedly...  :stirpot:

If I lived anywhere near London, I'd only use Kwackboy's gararage for my bikes  :thumb:

Chris Jagger Motorcycles in Walton-On-Thames... top bloke, honest and have seen him at work, he’s meticulous!

He’s more of a triumph bloke though but worth trying him  :icon_wink:

If the bike had the 15k major service, ie valve check, new plugs and air filter, change the oil and filter yourself and bang it on to 30k.
